Silly & Serious: The Self-Portraits of William Robinson

Confronted by his daughter's wish to own a dog, award-winning animator Dennis Tupicoff recalls the dogs of his childhood, in the industrial outer Brisbane suburb of Darra. Every household seemed to have a dog. Some were friends who shared his explorations and roamed free on adventures of their own before meeting an untimely death or simply disappearing. Some were huge, savage beasts who prowled around like the hounds of hell. This film is his memorial to those times, those feelings and to the dogs themselves.

During a family outing to a cinema, a young boy falls asleep. His mind flashes back to an early memory where, as a toddler, his family try to take a photo of him in their backyard. As he drifts in and out of sleep, his memory and the present begin to merge. Dennis Tupicoff's 2017 short film premiered at the prestigious Annecy International Animated Film Festival. The film's combination of hand-drawn animation with live action clips of the 1950 Film Noir D.O.A,, awakeness with sleep, and past with present creates a surreal quality that emanates throughout the film.

In the world's first media interview, shot in Paris in August 1886, the great photographer Nadar interviews the famous scientist and sceptic Chevreul on his 100th birthday. In their own words - originally recorded in shorthand - they discuss photography, colour theory, Moliere, the scientific method, the crazy ideas of balloonists, and - of course - how to live for 100 years. These two legends of the 19th century have a lively and interesting conversation. One was born before the French revolution; the other was destined to see the marvels of the aeroplane and the movies.

Death sings to celebrate the God that moves him - and then encounters Something in the darkness.

Romance is like a chainsaw: a very dangerous beast indeed.

When Academy Award®–winning animator and painter Joan Gratz asked eleven filmmakers if they would contribute to an omnibus film, she wasn’t sure what to expect—after prompting them to make a “one-minute memoir,” she let them figure out the rest.

As a man dies, his mind drifts back to the evenings of his childhood.
